Unibet Australia Review

In this independent review of Unibet Australia, we will tell you exactly what we like (and dislike) about Australia’s local operations of the Swedish-owned company.

They offer coverage of all three forms of Australian racing – thoroughbreds, trots and greyhounds – including some international meetings for thoroughbred racing.

Unibet Australia also offer a number of sports to bet on with soccer on the main sporting events on offer with a multitude of leagues covered worldwide and thousands of betting options for the ever-increasing popular sport.

Unibet also boast an impressive list of live streams, which is second only to the world's biggest bookmaker Bet365. Unibet stream live soccer, tennis, basketball and much, much more.

Worldwide operator

Unibet are a Swedish-owned company who were founded in 1997 and now claim to have over 9.5 million customers in over 100 countries.

They are one of the largest privately owned bookmakers in Europe and are listed on the NASDAQ OMX Nordic Exchange, and Unibet Group Plc have won awards for their In-Play betting and customer service.

In 2012, Unibet struck a deal to purchase Australian bookmaker Betchoice, which had been in operation since 2001, and began offering an online service in Australia at unibet.com.au.

Odds and Markets

There are a number of options available when betting on horse racing with Unibet Australia.

Along with Fixed Odds betting, Unibet Australia offer ‘Best Tote’ and ‘Tote +10%’ when placing a Win bet on a thoroughbred event whilst for Place betting they offer Fixed Odds, ‘Mid Tote’ and ‘Tote +5%.’

For metropolitan meetings, Unibet Australia will also offer a Starting Price (SP) Guarantee so that you are paid out at either the highest of the three dividends declared across the national Totes or the SP, whichever is greatest.

Harness racing and greyhound racing punters have the option of Fixed Odds, ‘Mid Tote’ and ‘Tote +10%’ for Win bets and Fixed Odds, ‘Mid Tote’ and ‘Tote +5%’ for Place bets.

One area that Unibet Australia lags behind competitors such as Bet365 and Sportsbet is their offering of Fixed Odds. For horse racing, they are out a day or a couple of days in advance for metropolitan events whilst only being available for a number of hours prior to non-metro gallops action.

When it comes to harness racing and greyhound racing, they are further behind with most fixed odds only being available for around 5-10 minutes prior to the start of the race.

Turning our attention towards sports, Unibet Australia offers a gigantic range of soccer markets with the standard book set at around 105% which seems to be the norm with most corporate bookmakers.

They also offer a wide range of markets for the AFL, NRL, tennis, basketball, cricket, ice hockey, UFC and even have a large number of markets relating to Politics if that takes your fancy along with a ton of In-Play betting options.

Website

The Unibet Australia website seems to improve every time we visit and it has a very professional look as they employ a green, white and black colour scheme to good effect.

The first thing you see on the home page is the site broken down into two areas – Racing and Sports. The current promotions and offers are also displayed with excellent graphics and images. You can click through to the required area of the site from here.

Once you click on the Racing tab, you will be met with a neat layout that lists the five ‘Most Popular’ racing events on the left hand side menu along with the next 10 races displayed in the ‘Next to go’ menu.

The next three races to jump are displayed at the top of the page with the top three runners in betting shown with their respective Fixed Win odds and Tote product. A simple click on one of these brings up the bet slip on the right hand side so that you can quickly place that all-important bet just prior to the jump!

In the centre of the page and further down you will see every race meeting for all three racing codes from Australia and internationally.

For sports fans you will see all of the available sports down the left hand side of the page whilst a number of different odds in the centre of the page where quick links and offers are also available. There is also a live score and results section and a live calendar to enable you to keep track with what sports events are going on. The website is quick and easy to use.

Victoria Derby Tips and Preview – Kia Ora Koutou to serve it up to Tarzino

The Mick Price-trained Tarzino is the hot favourite for Saturday’s Group 1 Victoria Derby (2500m) at Flemington and has been backed as if unbeatable, but an undefeated Perth galloper can bring different form to the race and serve it up to the favourite.
